Product Description

Protect paint and wallper in high traffic areas or hide holes around your electrical box with Kyle's exclusive wall switch cover expanders. These custom wall guards will expand the area around your one-gang electrical outlet cover or light switch plate to hide gaps, rough cuts, lumpy paint, or cracked Sheetrock around your wall box. These expansion panels are 1-1/2" taller and 3-1/4" wider compared to a regular single wall plate cover to hide the biggest problems. Larger than both regular and oversized switch plates, these jumbo-sized wall plate cover extenders are an easy, affordable way to correct visual flaws caused by contractor errors or remodeling changes like adding Nuheat thermostats. Allows you to use your regular switch plate that is part of your set without having to substitute an odd cover.

Features

Designed to work on a single-gang electrical wall box with any type of device - duplex, block, Decora, toggle, slider, cable, single round, etc.

Step 3: Pull device through center opening of wall switch plate expander then seat panel over the electrical wall box, and adjust as needed until pass-through holes are in alignment with the electrical box's screw holes. Reinstall the electric device over the expander cover by threading screws through device and expander directly into wall box mounting holes.

Step 4: Replace light switch wall plate and screw back into place, tightening down as needed for a tight fit against the wall. Turn on power again.

For 2-Gang Boxes:

To use this expander with a 2-gang box, the device must be installed in the center of the box using a mud ring. See our Guide for Centering a Single Device in a 2-Gang Box to learn more. There are different solutions for different types of boxes, so you will need to know which type of box you have.

Perfect!

Had to replace a Harmony thermostat. Swapped the 2 gang plaster ring for a 1 gang ring and used this plate to fit a Signature WiFi Thermostat. Paint quality is good and the finished product looked great. Only other option would have been patching the sheetrock and painting. This doesn't look odd. Very nice.

Great product

As promised

Kyle 6x6" wallguard switch plate extender works as promised. I was able to retrofit the new "HOME" model thermostat where an older "Harmony" thermostat was in use for my NU Heat mat, under my tile floor. The existing hole in the wall was too big for good fit on the "Home" model, but with the 6x6" wallguard plate it looks professionally installed.
Yes, it's a large white plastic plate on my wall but that is preferable to an empty hole along side my new , smaller thermostat. Service was also excellent and item shipped in timely fashion.
